< Samuu'Eel Kowaad 11 >

1 Markaasaa waxaa soo kacay Naaxaash oo ahaa reer Cammoon, oo wuxuu soo ag degay Yaabeesh Gilecaad. Oo dadkii Yaabeesh oo dhammu waxay Naaxaash ku yidhaahdeen, Axdi nala dhigo oo annana waannu kuu adeegaynaa.
Soon Nahash the Ammonite came up and laid siege to Jabesh-gilead. All the men of Jabesh said to him, “Make a treaty with us, and we will serve you.”
2 Markaasaa Naaxaash oo ahaa reer Cammoon wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Sabab keliya ayaan axdi idinkula samaysanayaa, taasuna waa anigoo isha midigta idinka wada bixiya si aan u ceebeeyo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.
But Nahash the Ammonite replied, “I will make a treaty with you on one condition, that I may put out everyone’s right eye and bring reproach upon all Israel.”
3 Markaasaa duqowdii reer Yaabeesh waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, Bal toddoba maalmood na sug, aannu xuduudka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan wargeeyayaal u dirnee, oo dabadeedna haddii aannu wayno mid na badbaadiya, waannu kuu imanaynaa.
“Hold off for seven days,” replied the elders of Jabesh, “and let us send messengers throughout Israel. If there is no one to save us, we will surrender to you.”
4 Markaasaa wargeeyayaashii waxay yimaadeen Gibecaahdii Saa'uul, oo erayadan ayay dadkii u sheegeen. Kolkaasaa dadkii oo dhammu codkoodii kor u qaadeen oo wada ooyeen.
When the messengers came to Gibeah of Saul and relayed these words in the hearing of the people, they all wept aloud.
5 Oo bal eeg, waxaa yimid Saa'uul oo dibiyadii duurka ka keenay, oo Saa'uulna wuxuu yidhi, Maxaa ku dhacay dadka oo ay la ooyayaan? Markaasay u sheegeen hadalladii nimankii reer Yaabeesh.
Just then Saul was returning from the field, behind his oxen. “What troubles the people?” asked Saul. “Why are they weeping?” And they relayed to him the words of the men from Jabesh.
6 Oo Saa'uulna markuu maqlay hadalladaas ayaa Ruuxa Ilaah si xoog leh ugu soo degay, oo xanaaqiisiina aad iyo aad buu u kululaaday.
When Saul heard their words, the Spirit of God rushed upon him, and he burned with great anger.
7 Markaasuu wuxuu qaatay laba dibi oo intuu qalay ayuu cad cad u kala jaray, oo intuu wargeeyayaal gacantood u dhiibay ayuu wada gaadhsiiyey xuduudka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, oo wuxuu yidhi, Ku alla kii aan Saa'uul iyo Samuu'eel soo raacin, sidaas oo kalaa dibidiisa loo geli doonaa. Markaasaa waxaa dadkii ku soo dhacday cabsidii Rabbiga, oo waxay u soo baxeen sidii nin qudha.
He took a pair of oxen, cut them into pieces, and sent them by messengers throughout the land of Israel, proclaiming, “This is what will be done to the oxen of anyone who does not march behind Saul and Samuel.” Then the terror of the LORD fell upon the people, and they turned out as one man.
8 Markaasuu iyagii ku tiriyey Beseq, oo reer binu Israa'iil waxay ahaayeen saddex boqol oo kun, oo raggii reer Yahuudahna waxay ahaayeen soddon kun.
And when Saul numbered them at Bezek, there were 300,000 Israelites and 30,000 men of Judah.
9 Markaasay waxay ku yidhaahdeen wargeeyayaashii yimid, Dadkii reer Yaabeesh Gilecaad waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Berrito markii qorraxdu kulushahay ayaad samatabbixin heli doontaan. Markaasaa wargeeyayaashii u yimaadeen oo u warrameen dadkii reer Yaabeesh Gilecaad, oo iyana way farxeen.
So they said to the messengers who had come, “Tell the men of Jabesh-gilead: ‘Deliverance will be yours tomorrow by the time the sun is hot.’” And when the messengers relayed this to the men of Jabesh, they rejoiced.
10 Sidaas daraaddeed dadkii reer Yaabeesh waxay yidhaahdeen, Berrito ayaannu idiin soo bixi doonnaa, oo waxaad nagu samayn doontaan kulli wax alla wixii idinla wanaagsan.
Then the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, “Tomorrow we will come out, and you can do with us whatever seems good to you.”
11 Oo maalintii dambe Saa'uul wuxuu dadkii ka dhigay saddex guuto; oo subaxdii hore ayay xeradii soo dhex galeen, oo waxay reer Cammoon laynayeen tan iyo hadhkii, oo waxay ahaatay in intii hadhayna kala firidhay, oo xataa laba iyagii ka mid ahu isma haysan.
The next day Saul organized the troops into three divisions, and during the morning watch they invaded the camp of the Ammonites and slaughtered them, until the hottest part of the day. And the survivors were so scattered that no two of them were left together.
12 Markaasaa dadkii waxay Samuu'eel ku yidhaahdeen, Waa ayo kii yidhi, Ma Saa'uul baa na xukumaya? Nimankaas soo bixi aannu dilnee.
Then the people said to Samuel, “Who said that Saul should not reign over us? Bring those men here so we can kill them!”
13 Kolkaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu yidhi, Ninnaba maanta la dili maayo, waayo, maanta Rabbigu wuxuu samatabbixiyey reer binu Israa'iil.
But Saul ordered, “No one shall be put to death this day, for today the LORD has worked salvation in Israel.”
14 Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu dadkii ku yidhi, Ina keena aynu Gilgaal tagnee oo aynu halkaas boqortooyada ku cusboonaysiinnee.
Then Samuel said to the people, “Come, let us go to Gilgal and renew the kingship there.”
15 Markaasaa dadkii oo dhammu waxay tageen Gilgaal, oo Gilgaal ayay Saa'uul ku boqreen Rabbiga hortiisa, oo waxay halkaas Rabbiga hortiisa ku bixiyeen qurbaanno nabaadiino, oo halkaasaa Saa'uul iyo dadkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu aad ugu farxeen.
So all the people went to Gilgal and confirmed Saul as king in the presence of the LORD. There they sacrificed peace offerings before the LORD, and Saul and all the Israelites rejoiced greatly.
